Cognac: $6000 per shot

The luxurious Lanesborough Hotel in London has just acquired the world’s oldest bottle of cognac, distilled in 1770, and is offering it to patrons of their plush Library Bar for £4,000, or about $6,000, per shot.

In addition to the 240-year-old sip, the Lanesborough, a St. Regis property, just installed a new walk-in cigar humidor, the first of its kind in a London hotel. The humidor houses 1,000 cigars and contains 25 private lockers for the personal collections of top patrons, who can enjoy Cuban and even pre-Castro smokes in the hotel’s posh Garden Room.
